The Lake House was phenomenal to work with. Getting married during a pandemic is stressful enough, but Paul and his team really made it as stress free as possible! The facility is lovely; large, classy, clean, and inviting. The staff was also friendly and courteous, and the food was absolutely fantastic! Carole the banquet manager took care of everything the day of my wedding so I did not have to worry about a thing! If I had any questions or a problem, Paul was quick to reply and even called me when necessary to make sure that our wedding went exactly the way we wanted it to. The flexibility of The Lake House was also great, I was able to make day-of decisions regarding an outdoor wedding and placement of decorations. What I also liked is ours was the only wedding that day, so we were able to use the whole facility, and the staff was dedicated to us the entire evening! I would highly recommend this venue to anyone!

Woodwinds

4.3

Branford, CT
  • Up to 600 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $110

WoodWinds is one of the most sought after Connecticut wedding venues for wedding receptions, banquets, corporate events or any special occasion, in the Tri-State area. A wedding in our impressive European Country Manor will reflect your personal vision. Imagine a magical experience, enhanced by a unique ceremony and reception on the beautiful grounds of WoodWinds. Envision standing on a grand staircase under the twinkle of Austrian Crystal chandeliers, taking pictures in a magnificent garden and dancing the night away on a marble dance floor.

I cannot say enough GREAT things about the Woodwinds and their crew! From touring with Vanessa to the planning with Randy and Michael, they all made the whole process SUPER easy! Vanessa really helped us with booking by spelling everything out, so it was so easy to understand. When you go on so many tours it can get so confusing, but they have it down to a science to keep it organized. Michael provided us with some tools to help with the planning. They had a way for us to organize our guests at tables and even had an event order where we just had to click and drag things in the order, we wanted them! Michael and Randy were always super prompt with our emails, even at weird hours of the night when we had to add one guest the day before our wedding. We had some pretty wild requests with some of our decorations (which they take care of setting up AND packing up at the end of the night) but they nailed it. We sent Michael a bunch of pictures and when we came for our rehearsal the day before our wedding Sergio was going through them to make sure every detail was perfect. Which leads me onto our day of crew...Sergio made our dreams come to life. He was there for every little thing we needed. We were ready to cut the cake, and when we turned around the photographer was set up, the DJ was playing the music we requested, and he had laid out the knife so that we had to smile and drop the knife onto the cake. He was flawless throughout the evening. We even had a bridal bestie who followed us around the entire night. It was a little cold, and she had a hand warmer for me! After dancing for a little and right before cake she came out with a mirror for us so we could make sure we looked great for pictures! She even made sure we ate and drank... You heard that right...WE ATE AT OUR WEDDING!!! The food was absolutely phenomenal. Michael recommended the Sunday Sauce, if they sold it in jars, we would buy it by the case! All the food was so good! We don't have a single negative thing to say about Woodwinds. Everyone there was so nice and pleasant to work with. Even when we called in payments, Kate at the main desk was super helpful and quick to respond. This is a team of true professionals, and we will be using them in the future!

The Riverview was amazing! My husband and I had our wedding there on 10/21/23 and we couldn't have asked for a better venue. Our coordinator Kayla was super helpful with answering any questions that we had and always got back to us in a timely manner. The day of our wedding, Kayla and our assistant coordinator Meghan ensured everything went smoothly. Our two bridal attendants, Stephon and Mackenzie, were wonderful!!! They were both so kind and always made sure my husband and I had something to drink or to eat. Special shoutout to Mackenzie for carrying the train of my dress in the pouring rain and for making it look easy to bustle my dress! All of the Riverview staff did a fantastic job with setting up our decorations for all of the dining tables, the memory table, guest book table, and place card table. Everything was packed up for us at the end of the night and it was really nice to be able to just put everything in our car afterwards. The food at the Riverview was absolutely delicious!!! From the hors d'oeuvres to the 3 course lunch to the dessert, everything tasted so good! We also got the add-on Viennese table for dessert, which all of our guests loved. The Riverview was incredibly accommodating towards food allergies that our guests had and put out labels at the Viennese table of any potential allergens in the desserts. It was a perfect day and we cannot thank the Riverview enough for making it possible!

My name is Taryn. My wife Brittany & I were married at Swan Lake 9/22/23, & it may have just been the best day of our lives. Now that the wedding brain has subsided (lol) I can finally sit with a clear head, & truly express how thankful Brittany & I are for the amazing & perfect experience we had at Swan Lake. Apologies in advance for the novel, but it’s completely necessary! From moment one, the entire staff at Swan Lake was beyond kind & accommodating. We had our first consult with Sophia, & it took us all of a few days to know Swan Lake was our place. Sophia quickly became my right hand through the entire planning process. Every phone call, email & visit (because there were MANY) was easy AND fun! Every expectation was met, and every question answered promptly. Sophia helped me troubleshoot & sort out so many projects along the way. I don’t think I was a difficult bride, but to say that I was ambitious might be an understatement. When it came to Wedding Day, there was a tremendous amount to accomplish. My decorations were definitely a handful; lighting everywhere, draping cascading from the ceiling, a multitude of different centerpieces, three signature cocktails, multiple favor type items... It took a LOT to put together & to say I was nervous doesn’t come close. Every, Single. Thing— was pulled off BEAUTIFULLY. I was blown away by the amount of creativity, help & support Sophia & the staff brought that day. I am eternally grateful. As the party was set in motion I must have been told 100 times how great the food & drinks were. Charlie crafted the most beautiful endless ‘cocktail hour’ spread, (we did not do a sit down dinner service… best idea EVER) which ultimately just continued and morphed into delicious station after delicious station. We had an epic dessert assortment where everyone found something they loved! Charlie, thank you. Your attention to detail & love of food and feeding people is unmatched! Elena came in for the evening hours to relieve Sophia. Elena was INCREDIBLE. I cannot tell you, this woman is on top of it. She made sure that everything was completely seamless & that I was kept in the loop all night, but also able to enjoy myself. She made sure that the massive breakdown went as smoothly as possible and that our night ended beyond successfully. Elena, you are the BOMB. Last but certainly not least, Mary. Mary, my bridal attendant, was the kindest, sweetest, most attentive & helpful human I may have ever met. This girl must have asked me 100 times if I needed anything. I’m pretty sure she brought me a dozen drinks (as I couldn’t keep track of mine to save the world), she packed up a little bit of all of the food & sent us home with a great morning after smorgasbord! My lipstick & phone was always within reach & my dress was always right where it was supposed to be! Mary– I was thinking about you, so thankful, eating mashed sweet potatoes at 4am hahaha. Thank you forever. Swan Lake & all of your staff– administrators, servers, bartenders, chefs, helping hands & everyone in between… Thank you for making our Wedding Day everything we ever wanted it to be. Thank you for all of the support & all of the compliments because it wouldn’t have been possible without each & every one of you. I said it already, but I will be back! I wouldn’t hesitate holding another event here in the future & I will always think of ya’ll as family. Brittany & I are eternally thankful & we love you all! T&B

We just had our wedding there this past summer, and it was more amazing than we could have ever imagined. Not only is the venue beautiful, this is such a wonderful family to work with. They are truly good people who care about those staying with them/having an event there. The animals were gorgeous, and waking up to the birds was perfect. We loved the Treehouse!!! We will be staying again for our one year anniversary!

We had an amazing experience with our wedding at the Essex Club. Jessica was our point person and was very communicative, our Maitre D (Rob) was phenomenal. Bridal assistant was equally as awesome. They accommodated us every step of the way. It rained on our day, and they made our ceremony happen indoors without a hiccup. Of course it's nearly impossible to have a 100% perfect day (obviously, you can't control rain), but we walked away 100% satisfied and would recommend this venue to anyone looking for a professional, elegant, and trustworthy venue. Thank you to the Essex Club and their whole staff for making our day so special!
